April is Daffodil Month
April 3rd, 2012
April is Daffodil Month, a time to fight back against cancer and to show your support for those affected by cancer. Make a donation and wear a Daffodil pin throughout the month of April, and celebrate Daffodil Day on Friday April 27th. For more information, visit www.fightback.ca.
Pins are available at every Accent Inn in B.C. as of Thursday April 5th; Victoria, Vancouver Airport (Richmond), Burnaby, Kelowna, Kamloops
On Daffodil Day the Canadian Cancer Society asks Canadians to take a moment to reflect upon the thousands of people who are living with cancer and to remember those who have died. On this important day they encourage Canadians to do something special for those living with cancer or to contribute in some way to the fight against this disease. For example:
- Tell a loved one or friend with cancer that you are thinking of them and let them know about the Society’s information and support programs.
- Do something special for someone you know with cancer (for example, make a meal, do an errand, babysit).
- Contact your provincial or local politicians to voice the importance of fighting back against cancer and tell them how they can join with the Society in this fight.
- Make a presentation in your community to help raise awareness about how Canadians can fight back against cancer.
Events will be taking place in communities across Canada during Daffodil Month and on Daffodil Day. Contact your local community office to find out more.
